Having had the chance to go top of the Barclays Premier League on Saturday with a win against Manchester United, some may be disappointed coming away with just a point.

However, after Leicester City comfortably held arguably one of the most talented squads in the whole of the English top-flight, most fans were suitably impressed.

Naturally there were many positive performances on the night but with Jamie Vardy breaking the all-time record for scoring in consecutive Premier League games, was he the star man for the Foxes on a historic night at the King Power Stadium?

Defence

Kasper Schmeichel - 6/10: As usual, a very solid performance from the Danish stopper. Made numerous comfortable saves and dealt with a powerful Chris Smalling header extremely well.  But, overall was not tested all that regularly. Nevertheless, could possibly have collected Daley Blind's corner which allowed Bastian Schweinsteiger to equalise late in the first half.

Christian Fuchs - 8/10: Arguably his best game for his new club. Against the Red Devils, the Austrian really showed his class and experience.  Defensively sound, the former Schalke man played a key part in the game as he dealt with the threat of Anthony Martial well. Also, was crucial in Jamie Vardy's opening goal by springing a lethal counter attack from his own box and playing a delectable through-ball to the England forward.

Wes Morgan - 7/10: Again, another very positive defensive performance. Despite not being troubled all that much all evening, the Foxes skipper still turned in a decent shift. Dominating in the air, the Jamaican kept Wayne Rooney quiet for most of the game. Overall, looked confident and composed on the ball barring a moment of madness in his own box that could have been punished. Looks back to his best of a few seasons ago.

Robert Huth - 7/10: Much like Morgan, the former Stoke City man enjoyed a somewhat stress-free evening. Looked relatively untroubled throughout the ninety minutes against a toothless United attack. When called upon, the German was willing to put his body on the line and most of the time was successful. However, can sometimes look a bit erratic when putting in certain challenges that could be penalised.

Danny Simpson - 7/10: Since coming into the team, the former Manchester and Newcastle United defender has done extremely well. Against his former club, he was relatively consistent and dealt with various United attacks with ease. However, in some instances, the 28 year-old was targeted by the Red Devils and he soon struggled with Ashley Young and Juan Mata bearing down on him. Also, did not get forward as regularly.

Midfield

Marc Albrighton - 7/10: A somewhat quiet game from the Birmingham-born wide-man. Against Louis Van Gaal's men he did not really have as much of an impact; contributing wayward shots and the occasional inaccurate cross. Nonetheless, did put in a lot of work (especially defensively) and did give the United backline things to think about with his great pace and dribbling.

Danny Drinkwater - 5/10: It just didn't seem to be the Manchester-born midfielder's night on Saturday evening but it was always going to be a tough task coming up against the likes of Schweinsteiger, Michael Carrick and Juan Mata. The Englishman lost possession too often and was not strong enough in the tackle. Looked overwhelmed for the majority of the game.

N'Golo Kante - 8/10: The Frenchman is becoming a firm fans' favourite at the King Power Stadium. As usual, the former SM Caen midfielder appeared to be all over the park and was constantly winning the ball back for Claudio Ranieri's team. Also presented a very potent outlet from the Leicester midfield with his pace and sharp thinking.

Riyad Mahrez - 7/10: An okay game from the Algerian but he seems to have settled since his lightning-quick start earlier in the campaign. Displaying great skill and wicked pace, the ex-Le Havre man was a constant threat to the United backline and could easily have had a pair of assists if the Foxes were a little more clinical on the night. However, as already explored, left Danny Simpson too exposed to a few United attacks at times.

Attack

Shinji Okazaki - 5/10: After scoring against Newcastle United last weekend, most fans expected the Japanese international to kick-on and really ignite his Leicester City career. However, on Saturday, the former Mainz 05 forward struggled with the physicality of the United backline and was incapable of having a real impact on the game. Worked hard but ultimately his touch was not good enough due to a lack of sharpness. Was substituted mid-way through the second period - disappointing.

Jamie Vardy - 7/10: Well, what can we say about Jamie Vardy? In the process of scoring an excellent break-away goal, the former Fleetwood Town man broke Ruud Van Nistlerooy's record of scoring in consecutive Premier League games.

Louis Van Gaal's men struggled with Vardy's pace all evening and he could have even had more goals to add to his 14 top-flight strikes so far this campaign. Surprisingly, won numerous headers against a strong Red Devils defence. A very positive display from the current Premier League top-goalscorer.

Substitutes

Leonardo Ulloa - 6/10: Came on for fellow striker Shinji Okazaki mid-way through the second half and added some much needed strength to the Foxes' attack. Pressured the Manchester United defence well and worked hard. Nonetheless, his touch did seem slightly wayward and he should be disappointed to not have scored when one-on-one with David De Gea.

Jeffrey Schlupp - 5/10: A very quiet cameo from the Ghanaian after being introduced with 20 minutes to go. The Leicester City academy product just could not get into the game. Despite his great pace, the 22 year-old did not bring any attacking impetus and almost seemed like a wasted substitute after he replaced Marc Albrighton.

Ritchie De Laet - 6/10: After being introduced at a late stage in the game, the Belgian still put in a respectable shift. Utilised to shore-up the backline, the former United youngster brought added energy to the Foxes as he used his great pace in both directions. Whilst threatening when going forward, he also put in some vital tackles to secure a well-earned draw for Claudio Ranieri's team.
